Alison Young (born 29 May 1987 in Worcestershire, England) [1] is a British sailor.[2] She competed in the Laser Radial class event at the 2012 Summer Olympics where she placed 5th.[3]

At the 2016 Laser World Championships, she won gold in the laser radial class [4] and in doing so became the first British woman to become world champion in a solo Olympic dinghy class.[5] Her best World Championship performance before this was 4th in 2012.[4]

Young was one of the favourites going into the Rio 2016 Olympics, finishing 8th overall. After the event Young revealed that she had suffered a broken ankle eight weeks prior to the Olympics but she refused to use this as an excuse for not finishing higher.[6]

She competed at the 2020 Summer Olympics in the Women's Laser Radial class.[7][8]
